Border Prisoner: The Mad Boss Seduces Her Every Night

Chapter 22 A Night Spent Together by the Sea

"...No need, Jiajia brother, you should take me home instead."

Shi Luyu gripped the seatbelt tightly, speaking softly but earnestly.

Going to a man's house late at night just didn't feel right. Even though he was her "childhood sweetheart," and even though he had just carried her out of that filthy women's restroom, she still felt uneasy.

Xu Yuanjia, with one hand on the steering wheel, only glanced at her lazily upon hearing this.

"Are you sure? It's raining at this hour." His tone was indifferent, as if he were just casually reminding him. The next second, he slowly added the second half of his sentence...

"What if bad guys are blocking your doorstep—"

boom!

Suddenly, another thunderclap exploded in the sky.

Shi Luyu was so frightened that she shrank her shoulders.

Both "Master Jia" and those girls made her uneasy. The lingering fear she had finally managed to suppress resurfaced, and her voice choked: "Th-that..."

She hesitated for a moment, but Xu Yuanjia was too lazy to wait any longer and stepped on the gas.

The black SUV sped out in the torrential rain, heading straight along the coastline.

Twenty minutes later, Shi Luyu saw the seaside villa through the rain.

It was a private territory encircled by the night and money. The coastline was almost cut off by a strip of lights, and the distant reefs and waves were wrapped in a wet, cold golden light. The huge black iron gates silently opened to both sides, and as the car drove in, she could even see the outlines of the helipad and the berths along the shore in the distance.

The villa, built by the sea, is three stories high and constructed entirely of cool gray and black glass. Large floor-to-ceiling windows bring in the rain and the sea.

Shi Luyu sat in the car, completely stunned.

After the car came to a stop, she stood still for a long time, unsure which foot to step with first.

Xu Yuanjia unbuckled his seatbelt, turned his head to look at her, and curled his lips slightly: "What's wrong, scared stiff?"

Shi Luyu pursed her lips and said softly, "Your house... is too big."

"Not bad." Xu Yuanjia wasn't modest; his tone was casual. "Get out of the car."

Upon entering, the entryway lights illuminate one by one.

The spacious living room was quiet and empty, with a cool and beautiful black, white and gray color scheme. The carpet was thick, and the giant leather sofa looked like a crouching beast. In the distance, the floor-to-ceiling windows offered a view of the surging sea.

The rain pattered against the glass, as if someone outside was constantly pounding on this luxurious cage.

Shi Luyu stopped standing by the door.

Xu Yuanjia didn't take her awkwardness to heart. He took off his coat and tossed it aside, then turned around, took out a first-aid kit from the cabinet, and as he walked back, he raised his chin and said, "Sit."

Shi Luyu glanced down at the scrapes on her knees and elbows and said softly, "I can do it myself."

Xu Yuanjia pressed the person down into the sofa, knelt down on one knee, and turned on the medicine.

"You forgot?" He bent down to treat the scrapes on her knee, his tone casual. "When you were little, if you accidentally bumped or hurt yourself, you would always come to me crying so your brother could put medicine on it for you."

When the medicine touched the wound, Shi Luyu gently pulled her leg back.

Xu Yuanjia didn't even look up, his hand firmly gripping her calf, preventing her from dodging:

"Why are you shy around your brother now that you're all grown up?"

Shi Luyu lowered her eyes, her ears feeling a little hot. Looking at him squatting beside her, she suddenly felt a sense of unfamiliarity: "Brother Jiajia, you're so different from when you were little."

Xu Yuanjia paused slightly, then raised his hand and pinched her cheek lightly, smiling casually: "You've said that many times already."

He knew what she was wondering about.

But he knew even better what details the real Xu Jia possessed—including the barely noticeable light-colored birthmark on his lower abdomen. Zhou Ji had already investigated those details thoroughly for him.

Therefore, it was not difficult for him to impersonate a childhood friend he hadn't seen for many years.

Xu Yuanjia lowered his eyes as he bandaged her wounds, then suddenly seemed to remember something and said with a half-smile, "If you're still worried..."

He deliberately paused there.

"My brother has a birthmark on his lower abdomen," he said casually, then suddenly grabbed her wrist and pulled it down to his hem.

Shi Luyu was startled. Her fingertips brushed against his firm, hot abs, and she suddenly recoiled as if she had been burned.

"I...I didn't say I doubted you!" Her whole face turned red, and her neck was flushed pink.

Xu Yuanjia glanced at her, amused by her reaction, and slowly put away the bandages for her, muttering a single word: "Good girl."

Shi Luyu felt even more uncomfortable after his words. She turned her face away and whispered, "Brother... I want to take a bath."

She's been through so much this morning, she's covered in sweat and has a vague feeling of filth, and she feels suffocated and uncomfortable.

Upon hearing this, Xu Yuanjia looked up at her and smiled enigmatically.

"Your wounds can't get wet." He paused for a second, his tone almost deliberately nonchalant.

"Will your brother help you wash?"

Shi Luyu's face flushed red, her eyes widened, and she blurted out, "You scoundrel!"

Xu Yuanjia chuckled softly, but didn't tease her any further. He turned and led her upstairs.

The bathroom was ridiculously large, with a solid black stone floor and a semi-submersible bathtub next to a floor-to-ceiling window, offering views of the surging sea and the night rain. He filled the tub with hot water for her, tested the temperature, and then turned to leave.

"Soak for a while, then I'll go get your clothes."

The door was gently closed.

Shi Luyu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She carefully avoided the wound and slowly immersed herself in the hot water, her body gradually softening. Outside, the rain continued to fall, and the sound of waves crashing against the rocks drifted in through the glass, like a continuous murmur from the deep sea.

Half an hour later, she came out of the bathtub wrapped in a bath towel.

Who knew that her feet were still wet? As soon as she stepped onto the ground, she slipped violently—

"what!"

She fell heavily to the ground, her lower back hitting the cold floor tiles, and the pain made her vision go black.

Almost simultaneously, hurried footsteps came from outside the bathroom door.

"Bang!"

The door was kicked open from the outside.

Xu Yuanjia stood at the door, his shoulders straight and his breath slightly heavy, clearly having rushed in as soon as he heard the noise.

Shi Luyu was still in pain and panic, but when she saw it was him, she felt a moment of relief.

But then, she suddenly realized!

She was only wrapped in a bath towel, which had come loose when she fell. She was lying on the ground almost naked.
